KRS 446.110: Offenses committed and rights accruing prior to repeal of law.

No new law shall be construed to repeal a former law as to any offense committed against

a former law, nor as to any act done, or penalty, forfeiture or punishment incurred, or any

right accrued or claim arising under the former law, or in any way whatever to affect any

such offense or act so committed or done, or any penalty, forfeiture or punishment so

incurred, or any right accrued or claim arising before the new law takes effect, except that

the proceedings thereafter had shall conform, so far as practi cable, to the laws in force at

the time of such proceedings. If any penalty, forfeiture or punishment is mitigated by any

provision of the new law, such provision may, by the consent of the party affected, be

applied to any judgment pronounced after the new law takes effect.
